How can the bbc put leeds b under heavy snow from 3pm onwards! Can they be that wrong!!

[Polar Low]

GAME OVER I THINK...

Lol, please...

[Manchester_Sunset]

I think Leeds are having sleet! It may turn more to snow when its gets late on and temperatures have dropped. Depends how long quickly/slowly it moves away or fizzles out though.

[Mark Griffin]

Due point of 2 is not going to get us anything. Lower temps and due point now creeping into Kent but i really don't see us getting owt tbh..

[Barry12]

Lol, please...

What? the best we can get is 1-3cm.

[allenar]

Just goes to show how hard it is to forecast snow at even a short time frame. Lovely wet resin here lol

[Manchester_Sunset]

Snow is the hardest precipitation to forecast! Must get the forecasters frustrated.

[joggs]

Rain in Bingley now.Oh well got me stewing steak in slow cooker n a few beers soon so alls not lost lol.Have a good afternoon all n hope we see some white stuff later.

[Lion]

Temp risen to 2° here ..Rain :-(

[fazzafarrand]

Looks as though maxed out at 3.8oC

on its way down?

[Manchester_Sunset]

Whens it forecast to go southwards? This evening?

[The PIT]

LOL lot of half empty glasses on here right now. Pity this rain isn't snow we'd have a pretty nice depth by now.

Anyway if John H is right nothing more for us today and will have to wait until later this week.

[Mark Griffin]

The system looks like it will pivot in the next few hours and start it movement south.

[Machu Picchu]

Finally joined the rain fest, well sleety rain anyway, temps jumped from around 0.0C to 1.8C and thats all folks.

I blame the septic tanks, they nicked all the snow, nobody needs 2-3ft of the stuff.

[yorkieblade]

I reckon we will see a little later for Sheffield - snow is likely above about 200m this afternoon with 1-2cm possible. After 18:00 snow levels will drop with most places potentially seeing a covering of 1-3cm, with a further 2-5cm at higher elevations. The snow should have petered out by around 07:00 am Mon Morning .

[Winter Cold]

Yes im still hopefull of some snow later. I woke up to a cm or so on the ground up here but since then it has been very light drizzle only.

To me it looks like quite a bit of the front has gone past us north east, so with it expected to pivot and then pull south that lot should come back accross as snow once the temps have dropped later and the colder air is being pulled in

[winterof79]

I am a glass half full type of guy,even though its water at present PIT.

But i am sticking with it turning back to snow.NAE and the met still showing a period of snow overnight.Weather gods get it sorted.

[Lion]

I remain hopeful ..1.9° so its dropping..

[the Steward]

Nice bit of wet snow at Ringinglow Sheffield at the mo.
